This year the Olympic games is a sad way connected Russians with the scandal. The international Association of athletics federations (IAAF) rejected the application of the Russian athlete Yelena Isinbayeva for participation in the Games in Rio. This decision was substantiated by the fact that the name Isinbayeva was implicated in doping scandals.
However, was rejected not only by the request of Elena and other Russian athletes. Only the International Association was sent to 136 applications from athletes, of which only 68 were claimed to participate in the Olympics.
However, this circumstance did not prevent the Russian performers solemnly carrying the Olympic flame in Brazil.

First with the torch ran Dima, and then it was the turn of Pauline. “For me, this is a historic moment. I was so excited I cried… It was emotions that I was not ready”, — said Gagarin in an interview for the organizing Committee of the Games.
